New Working Paper from the Dahrendorf Forum

The EU has been through a lot in recent times. Despite some optimistic claims that 2016 would be “a time of awakening” (Barnier 2017) for the Union, one must acknowledge the profundity of the existential crisis it presently faces: the United Kingdom’s (UK) referendum on EU membership, the arrival of President Donald Trump in the White House, autocratic regimes on the rise in its near-abroad, continuing instability in the Middle East, rising geopolitical tension, terrorist attacks on European capitals, and the seemingly unstoppable march of populism at home.

In light of all this, Benjamin Martill and Monika Sus examine the future of EU foreign, security, and defence policies after Brexit.
